Letter from Jonathan Davies to Damian Thompson, author of Counterknowledge.

Dear Mr. Thompson:

I saw your book titled Counterknowlege in a book store the other day, and browsed through it quickly.

There are a couple of comments that I would like to make, regarding what you say in this book mentioned above.

First, you are very critical of the idea of vaccinations causing autism. What I believe is that in some cases, vaccinations trigger autism. However, I believe that this is because in cases in which vaccinations cause (or trigger) autism, the individual has a high sensitivity to the heavy metals that vaccinations inject into the body. It is just like the fact that nuts cause some people to be very ill physically, but in all such cases, it is because the individual has a severe allergy to nuts. In cases in which an individual becomes autistic after having a vaccination, it is not the vaccination itself, or even the heavy metals that are in it, that is at fault, but the weak immune system that the individual has.

Second, I am very disappointed about your unfavourable opinion on alternative medicines. When I picked up your book, I was hoping that you would be critical of the pharmaceutical industry. I know that the pharmaceutical industry has brainwashed many of us into believing that if there is no pharmaceutical cure for something, then there is no cure for it whatsoever. However, I have a strong suspicion that this is the pharmaceutical industry’s own wishful thinking. A lot of people are saying that there is no cure for autism, but I have a strong suspicion that the pharmaceutical industry is brainwashing people into believing that. I have a strong suspicion that if there is no pharmaceutical cure for autism, the pharmaceutical industry won’t want anybody to think that there is any solution to autism whatsoever.

In your own opinion, if no alternative medicines can correct or eliminate autism, does that mean that there is no solution to autism whatsoever? From what I hear, there is currently an epidemic of autism. It is more common in the Baby Boom generation than in any generation before it, and it is even more common in the generation after it. What are people going to do if and when it gets to the point where as much as half the male population and about one-eighth of the female population (which would be about one-third of the total population) is on the autism spectrum? If there is still no pharmaceutical treatment or cure for autism at that point, we will be living in an awful world! Indeed, we are living in an awful world anyway, because of many other things that are happening, but it will be even more awful if and when as much as one-third or one-half of the world’s entire population is autistic!

If you believe that there will one day be a solution to the autism epidemic, please feel free to let me know what it might be. And if you don’t believe that there will ever be a solution, please feel free to let me know how the world is going to deal with it.

Did you know that Allpathic flu shots are being administered at drive-throughs and airports in the U.S.? Did you know that the CDC (Centre for Disease Control) inflates the stats. saying that 35,000 people will suffer flu in a given year? Actually most of these individuals will in fact suffer pneumonia. Did you know that the flu vaccine has no capacity to ward off pneumonia? Did you know that there is 25 mg of mercury (linked to mental illness including Schizophrenia and Autism) in every shot? It is called thimerosal which is a preservative and 25 mgs exceeds the safe recommended amount as per the Center for Disease Control (CDC). In fact, you’d have to weigh over 500 lbs. for this amount of mercury to be safe. The allopathic flu shot also contains other poisons like ethylene glygol (anti-freeze), aluminum (linked to Alzheimers and seizures), phenol (carbolic acid, dye, disinfectant), Formaldehyde (a known cancer-causing agent) and Neomycin and Streptomycin (used as antibiotics) have caused allergic reaction in some people. The U.S. recommends these shots annually for all individuals, including babies from 6 months to 5 years.

During the winter is when most individuals might suffer the flu. Proper regimen, including Vit. D, and exposure to sunlight, especially at dawn or at sunset. By sun gazing safely at these twilight times, within 10 minutes you will receive over 4,000 units of Vit. D which is 4 times the daily dose required to help stave off the flu and other illnesses. It does this by balancing the pineal gland which helps restore immunity by infusing you with inner light metabolism. Just like food, to stay healthy and happy in the winter months, you need to metabolize light.

The other thing you can do is contact us here at Arcanum Wholistic Clinic and on the basis of Homophylaxis (safe, natural, true preventative bio-energetic vaccination) we can administer this for free to anyone who would like to receive it in the world. It can be safely taken by anyone, including babies and the elderly, without causing an ounce of harm.

It is also a great boost to take a liquid supplement of Vit. D and they even make lemon flavored doses of this liquid version of sunlight so that your kids don’t run screaming the other way!

Most of us have been raised through an education system that still perpetuates the false belief that the heart is a pump. In fact, if the heart were a pump, it would run out of steam well before our 20th birthday. Its longevity has to do with the fact that it is not a driving force at all, but the truth is it is answering to one.

Have you ever seen a tornado? Have you ever studied a snail’s shell? Have you ever watched a tumble weed in an old Western movie? It is clear that weather systems and nature have been answering to a force perpetuating vortexes ever since the earth was born . The thing is, so do we.

Willhelm Reich, a renegade Psychotherapist, who studied with Freud, and a Cancer-curing Bio-Physicist identified this universal force as orgone energy over 60 years ago. The thing is that chemical science doesn’t want to have to deal with issues of orgone energy, nature’s true source for her power grid, because in the next breath, they’d have to validate the Creationists’ theories and then God. If that were the case, then they’d also have to throw out the silly theories that we were derived from apes and that disease comes from germs. For the Ape one, check out the book Tornado in a Junk Yard: The Relentless Myth of Darwinism by James Perloff.

If you want to prove the truth that the heart is not a pump, shine a light through a fertilized chicken egg shortly after gestation and then let us know what you see. Yep, those fluids are pumping through that tiny organism and there ain’t a heart on board. Look Ma, no hands! So where does that force come from? I was reading Dr. Husemann and Dr. Wolff’s, An Anthroposophical Approach to Medicine and I was studying their explanation of the heart by Dr. Harvy. Now, when I study, I also listen to music in an effort to help inspire my intellect to turn off and allow the concepts to permeate my deeper, more resonant, etheric organs. At this moment I was listening to Amadeus Mozart’s Lacrymosa, which I will include a link to below for you to listen too, if you like. I found the music was a intrinsic part to understanding the true ebb and flow of this energetic phenomenon:

Mozart’s Requiem Mass Lacrimosa

“William Harvey is generally considered to be the discoverer of the circulation of the blood and to be the one who established the ideas considered valid today. Prior to him, however, Miguel Servet, who was burned at the stake in 1553, described the small circulation exactly in a criticism of the Bible. In a chap- ter on the Holy Spirit, he describes an example of the working of Christ in the blood of the human heart. The breath of the creator working in the air of the earth, he says, penetrates by way of the small circulation into the blood of man. And how does Harvey himself speak of his discovery of the function of the heart and the significance of the circulation?”

It is possible to call this movement a circulation in the same sense that Aristotle compared the weather and rain with a cir- cular movement in the upper regions. For the moist earth warmed by the sun develops vapors; the rising vapors again densify to rain and fall downward again, moistening the earth.

Here we have the circulation of the sun. In this and in similar manner through the movement of the sun, through its approach and retreat thunderstorms and other heavenly phenomena are brought about. So also it could possibly happen in the body that all parts are nourished, warmed, and vitalized by way of a warmed, perfect, vapor-like, spiritual and (if I may so express myself) nourishing blood, whereas the blood in the various parts of the body is cooled down, densified, and weakened and therefore returns to its origin, to the heart, its source, to the altar of the body (lar = protective spirit of a house; hearth) in order to regain its perfection. There, through the naturally powerful fiery warmth, this treasure of life (vitae thesauro), liquified anew, is impregnated with spirit and with balsam, as it were, and from here it is again distributed: and all that is depen- dent upon the beating movement of the heart. Thus is the heart the primal source of life and the sun of the small world (princi- pium vitae et sol microcosmi), just as the sun in the same rela- tionship deserves to be named the heart of the world. By virtue of this force and its beat the blood is moved, brought to perfec- tion, nourished, and preserved from decay and disintegration. By nourishing, warming, and vitalizing, the heart in turn pro- vides services to the entire body—this household god, the basis of life, the originator of all being. The heart is the root of the lives of living beings, the lord of them all, the sun of the small world upon which depends all life and from which radiates all freshness and all force.

I feel that passage is one of the most beautiful things I have ever read. Did you enjoy it with the music? Did you love the feeling of the ebb and tide as the force pervaded the crevices of your being to gather the pooling blood, propelling it back to be imbued and renewed in the heart? Does it impress you to know that we never need a “blood change” like our cars need an oil change? Are you also amazed to realize our Physiology is so dynamic, and that true knowing comes from the heart of it all? Boy, oh boy, this excites me! I must be in love!

Unfortunately, both of my children’s births were delivered under great duress. Jordan was extracted by an emergency C-section at 33 weeks gestation and Adie was born almost 2 weeks late during the Ice Storm of the Century in January of 1998! She was a scheduled C-section as I was “not supposed” to be able to sustain a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After C-section ) due to the compromise in the muscles of my uterus. These experiences were very far from the hoped for Natural Child Birth I’d thought I’d signed up for.

When I went into labour with Adie at 4:00 a.m. on Jan. 9th, I took a window of opportunity and drove to the hospital. What I encountered was a state of confusion during this declared “State of Emergency” in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. It was Ice Storm mayhem and I lucked out to have a trained nurse/midwife at my side who had actually slept the night before. Nurse Irene knew I was potentially slated for another c-section, but she and I both knew the OR was unavailable.

She lovingly looked me in the eyes and said, “this babe is going to come out the way nature intended, and we are going to do it together.” All of the the drugs (epidural), and all the men, were dispensed with and Nurse Irene and I brought Miss Adrienne Valerie Glatt into this world without a single push, 10 minutes after I had dilated 10 cm at 10 minutes past midnight. The experience was a perfect 10 after all! I survived Natural Child Birth!

I never imagined that I could actually give birth, the way nature intended, and that it could be so painless and so easy. I had been using homeopathic remedies for months for first aid, including Arnica, Hypericum and Ledum and I still wonder if this made the marked difference in my experience. At the time, though, I didn’t know if I was helped by the remedies, but I did know that I’d never met any other women who had done this birthing thing without pain killers or an Obstetrician in the room.

My husband was so sick with a sinus infection that day, that Nurse Irene had declared him surplus and put him to sleep in a big lazy boy chair with a blanket and she and I went quietly to work to ride the tides of labor together. Adie’s Dad woke to see her beautiful head crown and her first breath. She was snuggled into my chest suckling within 10 minutes of her birth and I was in shock. I had done the unthinkable. I had given birth naturally. What a concept!

In an industry where the mortality rates of babes born in hospitals is alarmingly high, especially in the U.S. (Canada comes in a sad 2nd), and especially in babes of racial minorities, it can feel like we’re victims of a medical industry that does not wholly have our best interests, or our babies, at heart. The fact that we become patients in gowns and encouraged to use a wheel chair and lie in beds, just waiting for the time that is right to put us out of pain with an epidural is thankfully now becoming a thing of the past. Until recently, the options were not so great.

HypnoBirthing, Doulas, Water Births, Successful Breach Deliveries, and Mid-wives are all terms we women are championing as we take the fundamental right back to have our babes in the way that is most resonant and congruent for each one of us. If you have a minute, or two, to check out an awesome article in the Toronto Star where our dear friend, colleague and patient of Arcanum Wholistic Clinic, Helen Daniels, was excerpted regarding her remarkable birth experience, you may be blown away to see birthing being compared to having an orgasm! Good God, where do I sign up?!!!

In an article written by Jennifer Griebenow, on the safety of Hospital Births v.s. Home births, she is shocked to learn that, ” A study in the Netherlands done in 1986 on women who were having their first babies showed these results: out of 41,861 women who delivered in the hospital, the perinatal mortality rate was 20.2/1,000. Of 15,031 women who delivered at home with a trained midwife, the rate was 1.5/1,000 (Kitzinger 44).” She goes on to say, “I know, I thought it must be a typo too.”

Adventures in Natural Child Birth

Pretty soon, we’ll be walking up to the medical doctors and asking them, “Do you have any idea how risky it is for babes to be born in those antiseptic towers you work in? Have you seen the latest stats. on infant mortality of recent?” We’ve come a long way, Baby! And it is Moms like Helen Daniels who are providing us with the courage to do it very differently, our way. We are taking back our power and this time no one is going to be burnt at any stake!

…”Unlike some countries, immunization is not mandatory in Canada; it cannot be made mandatory because of the Canadian Constitution… legislation and regulations must not be interpreted to imply compulsory immunization.”

Arcanum: Many Canadian individuals are under the false pretense that they are compelled to give their child required immunizations in order for them to be able to attend public school or preschool. My son, Jordan, suffered vaccine damage and when I put my foot down and stopped giving him any vaccines after the age of 15 months, I signed a form “Statement of Conscience or Religious Belief“ , had it signed by a person authorized to sign affidavits: notary publics, barristers or solicitors, a Justice of the Peace, a judge of the Superior Court or a designated Commissioner of Oaths and my son has successfully attended schools and camps without an ounce of trouble.

…If someone (e.g. employer or health ministry) decides to take away another’s freedom of choice, THEY should be the ones burdened with the responsibility of defending this – the burden should not be placed on workers to prove they are deserving of a right that the law already guarantees. The union should staunchly protect their rights – particularly since we are talking about a right engrained in The Constitution.”

Arcanum: We have served many nurses who are enraged at their employers who insist on compromising their health as a result of imposing mandatory vaccines. Their employers and unions need to do their due diligence with regards to hijaking another human being’s intrinsic rights and freedoms. It is profoundly painful to work to mop up the medical havoc caused by compromised immunity from vaccine damage; chronic ear infections, pneumonia, bronchitis, and even unexplained paralysis are some of the after effects we’ve been contracted to address after vaccinations of Military and Hospital staff. We know scientifically that these allopathic shots are the cause, because when we treat sequentially and when we hit the vaccines on the patient’s timeline, their health and immunity is restored, so don’t try and tell us that it isn’t the vaccines. Take a look at Sgt. Mike Kipling’s campaign to fight his employer, The Canadian Military, after he suffered symptoms he feels were related to the Anthrax Vaccine. He touts that individuals having received this vaccine suffer a nebulous condition they’ve called Gulf War Syndrome and that “informed consent” is a mystical construct used by this government body to try and protect the mandatory sledge hammer.…”There is no compensation, by anyone, for anyone injured from the vaccine.”Arcanum: That is why it is important to ask for the lot and batch number and to track where each injection is administered. We had a young girl live with us from Mexico one year who suffered an adverse reaction to a vaccine. When we took her back to the Doctor two days later, they had lost her file, they did not know which arm the injection was administered, and they could not identify the batch or lot number so when we went to the trouble of reporting it to Health Canada, we didn’t have even a wooden leg to stand on.…

“Unlike some countries, immunization is not mandatory in Canada; it cannot be made mandatory because of the Canadian Constitution… legislation and regulations must not be interpreted to imply compulsory immunization.”

Arcanum: Most individuals don’t know this. When we lecture on the issue of Vaccinations, we are always asked the question, “Aren’t vaccines mandatory in Canada. Won’t my child be denied an education if I don’t vaccinate?” As we said, you are one form away from freedom. The other thing parents are concerned about, naturally, is also safely protecting their children from childhood diseases without causing any harm.We act on the law of homoprophylaxsis to safely and naturally immunize resonant folk, and their babes, including those working in the health care industry and the Military, using homeopathic remedies which include Influenzinum, Measles, Mumps, Rubella (German Measles), Diptheria, Polio, Tetanus, Pertussis (Whooping cough), Pneumococcinum, Hib, and even Varicella for Chicken Pox. We follow vaccine schedules championed by Dr. Isaac Golden in Australia who has been using homoprophylaxis for years with better success rates than the Allopaths. This way, your body and your rights are protected.For more information on this subject check out:Canadian Vaccine Laws by Chris Gupta who writes a News Blog called Share the WealthImmunization: History, Ethics, Law and Health by Catherine DiodatiDownloadable Ontario Vaccine Exemption Form
